Here’s how to participate:
1. Create your signature, using whatever “natural” or digital media you like.
2. Scan the results, if necessary (preferably at 200 or 300 dpi)
3. Send by email to gapa @ musefanpage.com (except without the spaces)
OR if you have no way of scanning your signature, you may send it by U.S. mail to Rebecca Lasley c/o P. O. Box 3, Jamestown NC 27282.
The deadline is end of blogging day, May 15 (that is, it should be there by the time we check the mail the next morning.)
No last names on the signatures, please–blognames and/or first name plus last initial only. Plain or embellished, as you prefer. Take a look at the first edition to get the idea (see comment #8 below).
You will also notice some show up better than others. Here are some tips:
LINE WIDTH: the graphics will print best if the lines are not too thin or light. For drawing with natural media, something at least as thick as a “fine” Sharpie (not “ultra fine”) is perfect, though you may have to write larger letters than you’re used to. Pencil and fine point pens will simply get lost, especially when reduced to fit on items smaller than shirts. For digital, use a medium or large brush (at least 5 pixels, 10 or more is better, for those programs which allow you to specify).
SIZE: make it big. Probably bigger than you think. There are so many variables, it’s hard to be specific, but if the file size is smaller than 80k, it’s likely too small. Most of those that proved easiest to work with last time ran from 150k up to 1 MB. No one has ever sent anything too big. It’s much easier for us to reduce a graphic cleanly than it is to enlarge one that is too small. If you can, print a copy to see how it looks.
FILE FORMAT: Most graphics programs will support the following: jpg, bmp, png, or gif. (When you save the file, look for “save as” or “export” in the file menu). If you use Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, Corel Painter, or Paint Shop Pro, you can send a file in its native format. PDFs are also fine. Ask if you have something else.
IF THESE INSTRUCTIONS DON’T MAKE SENSE TO YOU, DON’T WORRY. Just do what you can and send it in. We’ve learned a trick or two since last time and will find a way to make it work.
YOUR GOING TO MAKE ANOTHER ONE!!! YAYAYAYAY!
I will make my signature! *goes off to make signature*
Hmm… I kind of like my old one but I might want to add something to it.
cool.
Are you going to use the signature from the last one if we don’t send in a new one?
What I mean by that is, if I am a lazy bum and don’t bother to make a new signature, could you use my old one so I still get to be on the t-shirt?
I’ll probably make a new one anyway, but just in case…
awesome, I’ll put one in.
(3) Let’s start with a clean slate. If you want to use the same one from before, however, that’s fine. Simply let us know by the deadline.
If we need a new shirt because there are many new people, how will you fit the old people again and the new people?
A quick question, do you say “HPBs” or “HPB’s”?
Wait so do you mean to send it in in psd format for Photoshop, or jpg/png/etc? ;_; I’d like to contribute since i missed it last time, but…what.
So basically I just make something with my name on it?
-clueless-
(6) RtH,
1) For one thing, we have a different mix of people, so we don’t know what the total number of participants will be. Last time we tucked more than 30 names into a 10″x10″ space. I’m pretty good at finding ways to make things fit, if I may say so, so don’t worry.
2) Generally speaking, if you use upper case letters or numbers (such as HPBs or 1990s), no apostrophe is needed. Lower case letters can be ambiguous in the plural, so apostrophes clarify the meaning (as in “mind your p’s and q’s”).
(7) Axa,
I have Photoshop CS2, so a PSD is perfect. I mentioned the other formats because many MBers don’t have much by way of graphics software. Sorry if I confused you.
You can either simply sign your name or make it into an artistic extravaganza, though bear in mind it may be reduced to fit, so teeny details can get lost. The original should give you some ideas as to what works. Take a look:
AHGKJDHJAFD I LOST MY GRAPHIX PEN
*dies*
Er… I guess I’ll send in a new one, then…
Am I one of the old people who disappeared, or do I count as new? I’ll send it as soon as possible.
Oooh, I think I’ll embelish mine. You can’t really see any of the green I used on it right now.
Glassboro, we have your signature, but I’m concerned about whether the thin black lines will show up. Can you possibly thicken them up a bit? If not, I’ll see what I can do. The rest of it should be all right. Thanks!
Sure. It’s bad, isn’t it?
I sent it again, with some stuff added.
Shall I send my signature in now?
(14) There’s no attachment.
(15) Sure. Anytime you’re ready.
I just realized. Sending again.
I just sent the email…
Phoo. I have no way of scanning my signature in or sending via e-mail. I’ll have to mail it.
I just made one on a Neooffice document, took a screenshot, cropped out the part I wanted, and e-mailed the cropped bit. Simple.
I am so happy I already sent mine in… *whew!*
I’ll mail mine.
Aren’t I glad we have calligraphy pens.
Could we have a picture of the arrangement when it’s been started, and then updates whenever it’s changed? Please?
Could you just use mine from last time? although i honestly doubt i’ll be getting the shirt this time. you can thicken the lines if you want. or rewrite it, or turn it green, or throw it out the window, or install neon lights…whatever.
i’m in a very whatever mood today…
(23) Once we get a good collection going, we’ll start posting the occasional preview. Though I can guarantee the arrangement will change a zillion times and keep changing until the final graphic is uploaded to CaféPress.
(24) Sure, Ebeth, whatever works.
hmm. i sorta liked being exclusive. lol. but ill make a new one. the old one i did in the GIMP, before i got ps.
25-its nice having a graphic artist as an admin.
I’m working on my signature right now.
(8) If I send you a signature that meets those requirements, can I be sure it will be on there? I noticed tons of MBers aren’t on there, but I’m assuming maybe they just didn’t submit something.
(26) Thanks, ddod! I’ve only been using Photoshop since January, though I’ve worked with a wide variety of graphics software. I resisted PS for a long time — why be like everybody else? — but, wow, OK, it’s waaay too much fun, why deprive myself!
(27) E2MB, if you want to be included, you will be. Your assumption is correct.
I’m assuming that sending it as a Flash Movie is fine, since you got all my other stuff in the same format?
(29) The ones I know of were in TIFF format, which is fine.
yay!
i will get it!
I will make one now. Then I will get something. It may be a while before I get something, as i will have to save up first.
Sorry for the double post. What is a k compared to a megabyte? I’m using the gimp, and it only says in megabtes.
A megabyte is 1,024 kilobytes — a thousand, close enough.
Ok. So what’s a byte compared to a kilobyte then? I am trying it with new program, and that only does bytes.
For our purposes, 1 megabyte = 1,000 kilobytes = 1,000,000 bytes. 1 kilobyte = 1,000 bytes.
OMG SQUEE! Another one! Maybe I should do a rainbow and a hpb and skittles. Oh yeah, and my name. Or maybeh not.
Hmm, mayhaps I’ll get working on a new one.
The signature possibility I just made is 14 KB. Is that large enough? All of these conversions are confusing me.
Am I allowed to revise mine and send it in again? Because I just realized that I forgot something. Well, I’m doing it anyway.
Sent it!
(39) That sounds small. What software are you using?
I sent mine!
42-Paint. It’s 505 by 314 pixels. If it’s too small I can try and make it bigger. If it is too small, just ignore the one I sent and I can change it.
w00t! This is now my favorite thread.
i sent mine.
Cat’s Meow: The drawing itself should be OK. The typed lettering is too small, but you don’t really need it. Sorry about the confusion! It’s complicated stuff both to understand and to explain, made more so with all the different software and levels of experience. But all will be well.
Lady Moonstar, yours is fine.
GENERAL NOTE TO EVERYONE: please do not include a lot of type. It simply will not show up. And if you make it big enough to read, there won’t be room for everyone else’s signatures. Be aware I’ll simply erase most of the extra text.
Look at the image posted in comment 8. It gives you an excellent preview of how well the signatures will print on a shirt. See the typed words under Phoebe’s name? They’re barely visible here and only slightly more readable in real life. Her name itself, however, stands out boldly.
If you zoom in and out of your picture while you’re working on it, you will see very quickly which details hold up and which disappear.
I shall send my signature.
OMG OMG *goes off to make sig*
Here are the ones we have received so far:

Ebeth
I can’t put mine in the main until tomorrow. Post Office doesn’t operate on sundays.
50 – are you going to put in people’s old signatures if they don’t re-tell you to put them in? I think you should, personally…because some people may not see this thread, but still want their name available on stuff. Either that, or keep the other design as well.
I think I’ll keep mine the same, but I’m not sure. I’ll draw it a few times and see if it turns out well.
(52) By “returning” I mean those people who have specifically asked to use the same signature as before. If you make a new one, you will be listed with “new.”
We’ll keep thinking about it and will in any case certainly do our best to give everyone from the first round plenty of opportunity to be included. Not all of them are still active on the blog, though some may be lurking, which is one reason we’re allowing more than half a month before deadline.
Whatever the final decision, I’m not automatically putting anyone on the list at this point in order to be clear exactly what we have. For instance, a new signature could get lost in the mail, but the person thinks we have it because her/his name is posted.
Can you please put some version of my name on there? I may send a new one reflecting name changes, but I’m not sure.
I made a new one. I’m deciding between whether to send in the print or the cursive version. Both claim to be 1MB. The line size looks to be about the same as last time, maybe a little less but it should be OK. It’s 800x600pixels, saved as a .bmp with Paint. That works, right? Expect it within the next few days.
Use the same one as I sent you before unless you recieve a new one from me before the deadline.
50-I dont have a scanner, so I’m gonna mail mine. Its not all that flashy though.
53 – I get it, good idea!
I’m working on a new one, but if it turns out depressingly bad I’ll just use my other one. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve my other one? I was going to draw a purple panda too, but I couldn’t figure out how to draw it very well before the deadline.
Ah! Figured out how to turn a PhotoImpression file into a jpeg, finally. Though we have photoshop now, so I might do some stuff on there, or I might just change the origanal siggie I made and scan it in again, better. You can’t see any of the green, really. I wonder where I left the one I made, actually…hm…
Well, if I end up not sending another one in, please use my old one.
(55) D(c+q), sounds good to me.
(58) Purple Panda, you could find some inspiration by doing a Google image search for pandas.
(59) Jadestone, if you want to make your old file a brighter green, open it in Photoshop, select Image>Adjustments>Hue/Saturation, then you can fiddle with the sliders until you find a color you like. You can also fine tune by typing in numbers. Make sure you have the “preview” box in the corner checked so you can see the adjustments as you make them.
Did you get mine? I sent it in about an hour ago. Tell me if it is OK or not.
Got it, Donaldo. It should work.
THANKS!
Wait did I send you a document with two signatures on it? I think I did…
Oh, and I guess I left the apostrophe because the font I chose makes everything look like it’s an uppercase letter.
Sorry I was looking back at the document and finding those problems and getting mad at myself
I was just thinking- for those people who don’t have a graphics program or a scanner, maybe they could use a digital camera to take a photo of it and email that in? Then they could be sure you would get it on time.
MUSE READERS, UNITE!!! NOT ONLY ARE THE PAGES OF MUSE SMALLER BY HALF AND INCH, THE MAGAZINE HAS BEEN SHORTENED BY A !@#$#%^&* EIGHT PAGES!!! WE NEED TO ORGANIZE SOME PROTESTS!!! SIGN UP NOW BY SENDING FLOODS OF HATE MAIL TO THE MUSE HEADQUARTERS!!!*fines E2MB two pieces of choklit*
Did you get mine? I think it might be too small so
I can fix it if need be. I just sent it through email.
Got it, grnqween2011. I think it will be big enough.
I also have Dodecahedron’s.
(64) RtH, I’m not sure what you mean by two signatures — or do you mean what looks like two parts in one signature? I can remove the apostrophe if you like and make the “s” a little smaller to make the plural clear.
WOOTNESS!!!!
I am working on mine right now. Almost. I can draw and scan one, but I also have CorelDraw (ahem) 9. Could I send in somefink made on that?
(70) NatTheCat, any CorelDraw version works for me.
I’m working on mine, but it’s almost 9:30 where I am, so I’ll be getting off soon…I don’t know why, but I’m extremely tired…
I want the same signature as before on it. I’m too lazy to make a new one.
I am working on mine RIGHT now.
hint: it involves a cat. A very scary looking cat.
Can I incorporate a picture off of the internet into my signature?
Nevermind. I decided just to do it with my handy-dandy crayola markers.
If it’s all right with Rebecca, I’m going to change mine again, as I really hate it. So, in a few days I’ll send in a picture. Sorry!
I sent a new document with all of the changes yesterday so you don’t have to spend a lot of time working on mine
did you get my sig yet? i’m worried.
Just put mine in the mail!
(79) Got it, Piggy! Nice, big, clean file, too. Thanks!
(78) We have your new one as well, RtH.
(77) Sure, why not?
(80) I’ll be looking for it. Thanks for letting me know.
Almost finished!! I just need to draw in the cat. It looks evil. Very evil. Or I might just use the cute one….hhmmmm… well anyway not right now, as I have a dozen ridiculously complicated proofs to write for math tomorrow.
60- Oooh, fun! Is there any way I can make them thicker on PhotoShop that you know of?
i am working 0on a new one but if the deadline comes around and i still havent sent it please use my old one!!!!
kt the gr8, are you aware that your name still says kt the gr8’s Dad?
(83) Jadestone, the easiest way is probably to redraw the lines. A few suggestions:
— try out some of the brush presets to make different types of lines
— if you want a calligraphic line you can adjust the tip in the brushes palette
— use layers so you can use your original as a pattern to trace over without its getting messed up; then you can choose which version you like best
Let me know if you want more explanation for any of these. These are simple — and very useful — techniques once you know how to do them.
47-Well…the typed stuff is supposed to be too small to read. That’s the subliminal messaging that says “Serve the Hot Pink Bunnies”. I can change it if you really want me too, though.
Have you started to put them together yet? If you have, can we see drafts like you posted on the other thread?
(87) I get that. But the letters will end up so tiny they’ll look like flecks of dirt.
(88) First I have to make all the white backgrounds transparent and resize all the names to be proportional to each other. Then I can start juggling them around to fit the space. This past week there hasn’t been time to do much, but I should be able to post a draft a few days from now.
89 – cool! I’m still trying to decide if I want to keep my old one or work on a new one, but THF wants me to tell you to just use her old one. She’s been working on a huge school project, and has not been able to come on MB for awhile.
(90) Would THF mind if I thicken up some of her lines a bit? Some of the little ornaments didn’t show up very well last time, and now I know a few more tricks.
I’m making mine and I’ll mail it today.
E2MB, your signature arrived in today’s mail.
93 –
Will it work?
(94) There shouldn’t be any problem. I’ll have to wait till I get home to scan it though, as the scanner at work isn’t as good.
95 – Good. I was afraid it was too small.
(96) I’ll scan it at a high resolution to make the digital version bigger than the original. Then I can adjust as necessary.
There, I’ve finished it and addressed it, so I hope that it’ll get there in time.
I’m not sure of the proper size since I’m working with paper, and it might be too small. *worries*
99-I don’t think the size really matters. When I did mine for the last one, I took up most of the sheet of paper and whoever designed the shirt (Lady Bunniful?) shrunk it down to an appropriate size. bigger is probably better than smaller though.
99 – My signature was only about 3×5 inches on paper, and Rebecca said it would be fine.
Yeah, well, even if I send it today it might be too late. So I don’t know. Wish I had a scanner.
I sent it. Maybe it’ll be there in time, maybe it won’t. But it shouldn’t take more than a week for a letter to get from one coast to another.
91 (Rebecca) – I think Anna would like that, thanks!
Alice, it should get here this week. E2MB’s took only two days to cross the country. In any case, don’t worry. As long as we know it’s on the way, you won’t be left out.
Will there be a sweatshirt with it on the back and “Bo knows” on the front? Because that’s what I want….
If I don’g get around to making a new one, you can use my old one. You can erase “Common Loon”, because I have never used her very much. If you really need more space, you could delete “Ruffled Grouse”, but I do use her on the Ships Logs thread, usually. Whatever you prefer. I do like what what I put under under “Common Loon”, though.
I might make another one.
Alice, your signature arrived today.
Good! Will it work?
Could you show us what it looks like so far?
Beavo the Great, your signature arrived this afternoon.
(109) It should be fine.
(110) I’m not quite at the assembly stage yet. This has been kind of a rough week, but I hope to get caught up this weekend.
Cool! : )
Notice: Deadline’s in 5 days!!! Send your sig in now if you want to be included!!!
I sent mine in, but I may change my mind about it…
Will it work?
(114) It should be all right.
Rebecca – just use my old signature. I don’t think I’ll be able to make a new one, and I like my original one. Thanks!
Hay Rebecca, just use my old one, k? fangs.
Use my old one too, please. Thank you!
I’m sorry about this, but I’m trying to decide on a name. I sent you one with this name, but I might change again. What do people think? Can you keep both of mine please? I’ll tell you which one I like best once I’ve decided. For now use Lady C though. Thanks!
Lady C.
102- If you have a digital camera, take a picture of it. Upload that picture onto the computer, and send it as an attachment. That’s what I’m going to do, right now.
*gets paper and a pencil*
I’ve got the signature onto the camera, now I have to find the cable. My other option is to use a LEGO(c) camera, which is really a webcam, but it has bad quality.
120- That occured to me but I thought it might not be a very good-quality picture if I did that. I’m no photographer.
Neither am I, but you just have to hold the camera still over it and take a picture. Then, you put it on the computer, give it a catchy name like “Museblog Signature Take 3”, and send it as an attachment.
123- Oooooh, catchy name!
I have trouble holding the camera still. Whenever I try tokeep my hands steady, they go unsteady, even if when I don’t trry they’re perfectly normal. Also, shadows would get in the way, I would think.
The name’s so that you can find it.
eeek!!!
only three days left and i haven’t started yet!!
*opens photoshop*
115: Oh geez! Just realized something! The backround came out slightly gray, and it’s supposed to be white, and I’m afraid it’ll come out as a gray square with my sig in it, instead of looking like I just signed the white backround area of the shirt. Eek!
I guess I’m not really sure how it will turn out. Should I re-do it and try to make the backround whiter?
Rebecca knows all kinds of tricks. I’m sure she can fix whatever you’re worried about.
86- Thanks! I’m making them thicker right now… I know it’s very close to deadline, heh heh… procrsstination is fun!
Ooh, I like this caligraphy brush here…
I think that I’ll try my luck with the LEGO (c) camera.
I’m about to send it… I hope 3000×1500 pixels isn’t too big… eeks, I didn’t notice at first… Ah, well. Let me know if you get it…
Snap, I knew I would do something dumb. I forgot the apostrophe. I’ve sent in a better one; hope it’s big enough.

NatTheCat — have you sent yours yet?
purplefinch — will use (revised) old one if new one doesn’t arrive
The Skipper Nancy — will use old one if new one doesn’t arrive
Glassboro — are you still sending in a replacement?
oh. will send mine in then. thanks for the reminder!
(I can’t do it now, but it should be in by tomorrow afternoon)
Yes, I need to take a picture. I guess that I’ll do it now. *gets out cheap LEGO(c) camera*
Oh, no. The camera isn’t working. It turns out that I don’t have macam on this machine, so I can’t use it. I’ll have to use another one, which I can do. *goes off to get other machine (computer/laptop)*
They’re really bad quality, I’ll try to get something better. If I don’t, though, decide which to use. I’m sending them now.
Take a picture? What? I haven’t been on this thread since May second.
NOTICE!!!!!!: TOMORROW IS THE DEADLINE!!!!!!!!!
*hits head* This is the first thread I came to, and I got here through the recent comments bar, so I didn’t see the GAPAs already put up an announcement! *hits head again*
Can you use all the old ones whos new ones haven’t come in yet?
The GAPAs need the signatures all in by the day after tomorrow (for ones in the mail) and they would like for everything to come in by tomorrow.
GAPAs-how soon will the shirts ‘n’ stuff be ready?
Glassboro — sorry, but the new files you sent are just too small. Enlarging the image creates a pixelated blur, and I can’t make out the drawing at the end of your name (before the question marks).
Can you possibly send me the signature by regular mail? The address is at the top of the page. Since this is at my request, the deadline won’t count against you. If you can mail it today or tomorrow, I should have it by Thursday.
I can use one of these as a placeholder while I’m doing the layout, so don’t worry, the progress of the shirt won’t be delayed.
I’m making a new one! This is my favourite name. I’m sending it now. done.
I just sent mine. Can you tell me when you get it?
Ok, mine was just sent. I hope it isn’t too small.
I just found out this morning that I have a scanner, so I’ll scan the pictures right away. *goes away from computer to ask his mom how to use the scanner*
WAIT!!! USE MY NEW ONE!!!!
ONLY USE MY OLD ONE IF YOU DO NOT GET MY NEW ONE!!!
(not to sound bossy)
Great. My mom and I both don’t know how to use the scanner, so I’ll have to wait for my dad to get home. I’m really sorry, Rebecca.
I just finished it yesterday, actually. The lies are a little rough where I thickened them, and the color’s a bit different, but it’s passable in my opinion. I’m going to try to smooth it out a bit more before I send it in.
On that list, did you mean my new one (digital and clear, at least I think) or the old one (handwritten and scratchy)?
I’m excited to see the shirt! *heads to Musery Loves to see what products there were last time*
kt the gr8 — Can you send your file in a different format? See the note at the top of the page for file types. Nothing I have will open a “sig” file.
(148) Glassboro, it’s OK. We’ll get it one way or another.
(150) Dotty-kay: I mean the new one.
wingnut — We have your email, but we’re still trying to open the file.

Penty is le sending le signature.
Once she makes it, that is.
(154) Great! I’ll add you to the “waiting for” list.
ack!!! really how big do you want it? (pixelwise)
(156) ddod, got your email, no attachment.
CS3, huh? Lucky you. I’ll have to tough it out with CS2 a while longer.
I love deadlines-especially the whooshing sound they make when they fly by.
Mine will be in before midnight.
158-Ha.
You can just use my old one. As you can see, I have not been very productive these past days.
did you get my new one??????
please use my old one if you do not gget my new one in time!!!
(160) kt the gr8, see my comment #151. Can you send it in a different format? I’ll still count it on time even if you can’t get it in today.
New additions to the list:
NatTheCat
wingnut
My home computer is kind of dead, so can you use my old one? It’s perfectly fine. Is that okay?
(141) How long it takes will depend on (a) how much tweaking of individual signatures will be necessary and (b) how easy or difficult it is to fit all of them into the available space.
When it’s done, I’ll post the artwork so everyone can be sure I have the correct signatures.
(162) Sure, SM2K. I’ve added you to the list.
Aaaah! Can you use my old one? I didn’t like it that much but I don’t have another one to send it. -failure- Dx
(164) Sure, Margaret, I’ll put you on the list, but you still have the rest of the day….
165 ~ I’m leaving in five minutes for a rehearsal and I’m going straight to a concert from there and the scanner isn’t on so…I guess I’ll try to use paint, but I have no mouse-writing skills or any good fonts. The odds are against me, I’d say.
Glassboro, what’s the word on your signature? Are you still sending the new one?
Word? I don’t think that I put one in, and yes, I’ve sent it.
(168) The word is “Glassboro,” I think, if you’re gonna be all literalist about it. Anyway, your signature has arrived and looks fine. You still have a few hours left to change your mind.
(166) And yet, in the great Muserly tradition, you pulled it off, anyway!
Please check your email one more time!!! I’ve been mega-busy, lately, but I just finished and sent in my signature! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
(170) Got it, Shadowkat! You’re still in plenty of time. The print showing through is actually kind of interesting…I’ll see what I can do to minimize it though.
right-oh. sent it again.
169- I thought that you might have thought that the ?|? was a word. I wasn’t being literal-minded, though it is fun.
171-Lol…Don’t worry about the print behind the signature…I don’t care about that, no one will even notice (and besides, it is interesting). It’s the print around the edges that I’m worried about…
(172) Worked this time. The file gave me an error message about the font when I opened it, but everything looks good, so I don’t think there was a real problem. The bevel/emboss and drop shadows came through fine.
(174) Oh, don’t worry about that. That’ll be easy to erase.
If you can, can you arase the little dotty line thingies around the textboxes in my signature? I keep trying to but I cannot figure out how.
